Hal,
If you have got plenty of money, there is another alternative. Recently there are new heads being made for the Bristol 2-litre block. Stewart Banks designed them and has apparently already sold four. They are being sold by Jaye Engineering and they are about GBP 7100 + vat including valves and springs. They are designed to be used with hot camshafts etc. to cope with 160 bhp, but nothing to stop you selecting a cooler camshaft. Stewart Banks is +44 1604 830879 and Peter Jaye is +44 1908 551467.

IN racing ( Ian Nuttal Racing ) is producing a new block of 2.5 litres. This will mate with Stewart Banks' new head or a standard Bristol head. Will be about GBP 8000 + vat. Speak to Peter Jaye.

These details are accurate as far as I know. I wish I had the money to buy these as a present fo my 403 ! Good luck.
Dave Dale.
